Dive-site story
Situated off the north side of the cay between St. Thomas and St. John, this site features large underwater rock formations, gullies, and coral-covered ledges that drop down to a rubble and sand bottom. Water movement through the surrounding channel sweeps past the rocky ridges, attracting active pelagic species alongside resident reef animals sheltering in the undercuts.
Rugged volcanic rock canyons and deep overhangs sheltering nurse sharks and southern stingrays
Regular visits from schooling horse-eye jacks, tarpon, and Caribbean reef sharks cruising the current lines
Sponges, sea plumes, and gorgonians carpeting the rocky slopes
